Tagetes lucida
An Aztec sacred herb used as incense, medicine, and as a tarragon substitute, with documented psychoactive properties at high doses.
Tagetes lucida, known as Mexican marigold, is a sacred Aztec herb used traditionally as a digestive aid, anxiolytic, and in ritual incense. Its key active compounds include anethole, estragole, methyleugenol, and coumarins, which contribute to its mild psychoactive, analgesic, and antimicrobial properties. Modern evidence is limited (Level C), supporting its use for anxiety, pain, and gastrointestinal discomfort.
Anethole and estragole are thought to modulate GABA-A receptors, producing anxiolytic and sedative effects, while methyleugenol may act on TRP channels to provide mild analgesia. Coumarins contribute to antimicrobial activity and may inhibit platelet aggregation. At high doses, the herb exhibits psychoactive effects possibly via monoamine oxidase inhibition or cannabinoid receptor interaction, though mechanisms remain poorly characterized.
